G.I.V.E. = Conscription/Slavery (& no religion allowed)

People, if this doesn't wake you up to the obvious comparisons to Obama's regime and the Nazi regime, what exactly will it take?

Enforced "volunteerism" is nothing short of conscription and/or slavery. Wait 'til we have enforced charitable contribution (which I've heard referenced as SHARE Act), which will be nothing short of theft and/or even more taxes.

Obama's Hitler Youth Will Not Be Allowed to Express Religious Beliefs

March 25, 2009
(Bumped)
The House passed the Generations Invigorating Volunteerism and Education Act on Monday. The bill includes language indicating young people will be forced to participate in mandatorya mandatory part
That doesn't sound much like "volunteerism" does it?

The Hitler Youth Plan was just passed by the US House this week.

German youth praising Hitler.

The mandatory youth plan requires America's youth to participate in mandatory service youth programs.
But that's not all.
The mandatory youth plan also forbids members from attending religious services and forbids youth from witnessing their religious beliefs.
The Voice Magazine reported, via Free Republic:

national service programs. The bill also states that "service learning" will be of the youth curriculum.

Is this the change you really voted for? President Obama has only been in office for two months. Now we have HR 1388. The Bill was sponsored by Rep. Carolyn McCarthy (D-NY) with 37 others. The Bill was introduced to the floor of the House of Representatives where both Republicans and Democrats voted 321-105 in favor. Next it goes to the Senate for a vote and then on to President Obama.

This bill’s title is called “Generations Invigorating Volunteerism and Education” (GIVE). It forms what some are calling “Obama’s Youth Brigade.” Obama’s plan is require anyone receiving school loans and others to serve at least three months as part of the brigade. His goal is one million youth! This has serious Nazi Germany overtones to it.

The Bill would forbid any student in the brigade to participate in “engaging in religious instruction, conducting worship services, providing instruction as part of a program that includes mandatory religious instruction or worship, constructing or operating facilities devoted to religious instruction or worship, maintaining facilities primarily or inherently devoted to religious instruction or worship, or engaging in any form of religious proselytization.” That means no church attendance or witnessing.

Again, is this what America voted for? Here is part of the HR1388 Bill’s wording:

SEC. 1304. PROHIBITED ACTIVITIES AND INELIGIBLE ORGANIZATIONS.

Section 125 (42 U.S.C. 12575) is amended to read as follows:

SEC. 125. PROHIBITED ACTIVITIES AND INELIGIBLE ORGANIZATIONS.

(a) Prohibited Activities- A participant in an approved national service position under this subtitle may not engage in the following activities:

(1) Attempting to influence legislation.

(2) Organizing or engaging in protests, petitions, boycotts, or strikes.
…

(7) Engaging in religious instruction, conducting worship services, providing instruction as part of a program that includes mandatory religious instruction or worship, constructing or operating facilities devoted to religious instruction or worship, maintaining facilities primarily or inherently devoted to religious instruction or worship, or engaging in any form of religious proselytization.

House Passes Hitler Youth Bill

More... Beto Ochoa reminds us that this bill directly goes against the US Constitution:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion,
or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;
or abridging the freedom of speech,
or of the press;
or the right of the people peaceably to assemble,
and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.

Not that this bothers the Democrats.

UPDATE: It looks like Democrats may already have their training video for the youth service group.

Excellent post! You hit the nail on the head: the very idea is unconstitutional. It goes against the "free exercise" clause of the first amendment. Therefore, if/when it becomes law, we are not obligated to obey it. That's the way I see it anyway. :)

I'm not at all surprised to see mr. prez. pushing this idea; I knew when he was elected to the Senate that he'd be trouble. He has no respect for the Constitution. And he's a narcissist. He doesn't want the youth worshipping anyone other than himself.

I've written about this until my wee fingers have smarted from the effort. I don't know when people are going to wake up to what's happening here. It's not as if the media's even trying to hide it anymore.

*sigh*

How 'bout them Brownshirts!

"enforced charitable contribution"

Isn't that what Federal Income Taxes are? At least that is what it feels like. I'm just praying that we survive the next four years and that we are able to reverse most of his attempts to destroy this country.

How is American so blind... is is the verbage that is so slick.. that people are not getting it?

Why are we heading like a freight train to this peril and can do nothing but see it happening?
